Thanks for all your hard work. If there was a good sportsman award you would be in the lead.

Just checked out one of the conservation areas. Seems you'll need more that just the Ontario outdoors card. OFAH membership and to pay a fee to the conservation area. No problem! Anywheres from $30-75. Not bad!

Thanks, x_xeon_x! Great job compiling this info. I now have my work cut out for me.

FYI, if I do decide to buy 200 acres up north I'll let you all know...

Here is an "Atta Boy" for the links and updates. Great resource for the newbies like me (3 yrs hunting) after 30 in the army...

What is "9. Orangeville (WMU 81)"? It'd listed under Wildlife conservation areas. Does anyone know where it is?

Haven't looked in a long while but I believe its the conservation area east of Orangeville HWY10/HWY 9. Use to be able to duck hunt there but I believe hunting no longer allowed there. Fishing still good for pan fish and hammer handle pike. Not a bad ice fishing spot well if we get any ice this year.

You are referring to what is called now " Island Lake Conservation Area". Indeed there is management plan document on-line that is saying that hunting should be phased out and the doc is from 1997. What is puzzling - why would Hunting Regulations Summary list it every year as huntable location?

For the answer , call the MNRF. they are the ones responsible for it and have the summary published.
